The programme helped him explore different career paths and Ethan became one of the top graduates from his cohort. The Foundation took the opportunity to hire him and he now helps other young people involved in the programme on their career journeys.

What you need to know:
- Thunderstorm activity is likely to ease in Coromandel Peninsula Tuesday night.
- Rainfall of this intensity can cause surface and/or flash flooding, especially about low-lying areas such as streams, rivers or narrow valleys, and may also lead to slips.
- Driving conditions will also be hazardous with surface flooding and poor visibility in heavy rain. If any tornadoes occur, they will only affect very localised areas.
For information on preparing for and keeping safe during a storm, see the Civil Defence Get Ready website

Virtually 100% of the air you breath in any air conditioned or heated space, has been recycled through a heat pump system ... numerous times.
Heat pumps are the dark, damp, nutrient-rich environment that mold, bacteria and other microbes thrive in, and a primary cause of “Indoor Air Pollution.”
Only a professional clean and service can remove these nasties from your heat pump.
